Three international superstars of the literary world who have written about their own lives will take the stage for a not-to-be-missed discussion. Dina Nayeri is best known for her book The Ungrateful Refugee, a biography where her experience of escaping from Iran and her assimilation to the western world is in the foreground. Jan Grue has published two autobiographical novels, I Live a Life Like Yours and If I Fall. For the latter he was awarded the P.O. Enquist Award. Lea Ypi is a political scientist and writer. She grew up in Albania and writes about the fall of communism from a personal perspective in the bestselling book Free. Literary critic Vera Knútsdóttir, literary critic, will lead the discussion.

The event will take place in English.
